A raised metal scaffold platform holds several men in saffron and orange robes; one standing man pours liquid from a vessel over the lingam, with a stream of orange liquid visible. Two other robed men stand nearby on the platform. The setting is an outdoor ritual abhishekam on a clear sky, consistent with a Maha Shivaratri worship scene.2015-02-17December 04 20162016-12-04A large black Shivalingam is adorned with bands of marigold garlands in yellow, orange, white, purple and green, outlined with a red and white flower border, and stands on a flower-draped yoni peetha.
